The Witch 4K 2015 Ultra HD 2160p

The Witch 4K - New England, 17th century. In a village populated predominantly by Puritans, whose severity of morals, asceticism and striking religiosity became the talk of the town, an extraordinary event. As a result of the controversy on the subject of theology, one of the farmers is driven out of the community. William (the so-called farmer's name), is determined to rebuild and is preparing for the move. Together with him, his faithful spouse Katerine, the eldest daughter Tomasin, the son Caleb, the little twins Jonas and Mercy, and very tiny Sam leave. They choose a place for a new farm far from the village, on the edge of the old forest, where a witch is rumored to live. But the head of the family does not really believe in these fables, relying on his own piety. The family takes up work and soon puts the household on its feet. The only thing that worries the settlers, especially the elder Tomasin, is the constant feeling that someone is watching them from the forest. Once, playing an innocent game with Sam, closing her eyes for a second, she finds with horror that the child has disappeared. The girl can not believe what happened, it is simply impossible for the baby to disappear in a moment. In a state of shock, it seems to her that some obscure figure is retiring into the forest thicket, but she is not exactly sure if it was a vision or she really saw something. The Witch 4K UHD download - Parents blame the daughter for absent-mindedness, do not want to hear about anything, and think that she is deceiving them. Disappearance blamed on the fact that the child was dragged away by a wolf, this has already happened in those parts. But further events suggest that it is not a predator. The debut (in full meter) work of Robert Eggers made a real splash at the Sundance Film Festival. The thoroughly developed world of the first American colonists allows you to plunge into a dark era, when piety is tightly mixed with obscurantism, which often led to real tragedies - the process in Salem is a vivid example. But if, for a moment, it was assumed that it was not only the slander of dense villagers, and in some cases, behind these events, there were truly unknown forces. What then?


The Witch 4K review

630, New England. The family of the farmer expelled from the settlement named William finds a new home on the edge of a dense forest. Their already difficult life is complicated by the rotting harvest, and then William's eldest daughter, Tomasin, loses the newborn baby Sam - the father decides that the wolf took the child away, but Tomasin is sure that animals have nothing to do with it. This is not the end of the family’s troubles, and everything indicates that it was not without witchcraft. Among the fans of the film was Stephen King, who admitted on Twitter that “The Witch” was scared to death by the Witch 4k Robert Eggers received a powerful “promo” at the very start - after the first show of the tape at the Independent Film Festival in Sundance in the early 2015th Internet dazzled with accolades that promised a completely unique spectacle. After that there were other shows, and each of them added a few more enthusiastic reviews to the Witches box. The film reached the wide audience only a year later, and it’s nice that it wasn’t possible to “overheat” the expectations - “The Witch UHD” is really impressive. Robert Eggers from childhood was obsessed with scary stories about witches - his first experience in directing was a short film based on the tale of Hansel and Gretel. The plot picture is not unusual, but the familiar story is told extremely rarely. Small farm on the edge of the forest. Exhausted by the survival of a family of parents and five children of different ages. Something dangerous and creepy in the forest. Perishing crops, drooping living creatures, mysterious disappearances and death. A lie for good, which eventually leads to suspicions: maybe the source of evil should be sought not in the forest? Maybe someone from those whom you know all your life, made a deal with the devil? Eggers regularly keeps the intrigue until the very end, but unexpected plot twists are not an end in itself for him - in this film in the foreground is not “to go,” but “checkers”. The creators of many serious historical films attract professional consultants and spend huge budgets to recreate the era. Eggers did not have a large budget, but he did the impossible - within the framework of a single farm, he created a real reserve of that era, strikingly authentic and believable to the smallest detail. And this scrupulousness concerns not only costumes and scenery - for example, the actors speak Old English, which is very difficult to wade through, and moreover - Eggers brought many dialogues into his film from old documents on witch trials. It is necessary to make a reservation that the Witch Ultra HDwill not make you jump nervously in the chair, but Eggers does more - he recreates on the screen and makes you feel the eternal feeling of some primal chthonic horror in which our distant ancestors cooked. Thus, one of the central places in the film is occupied by the relationship of the characters with religion and God, which in The Witch never manifests itself, but still turns out to be the embodiment of truly medieval cruelty — the fear of sin and the inevitable retribution for it stifles the heroes, binds them hands and feet, but innocence and purity will not protect and will not save when evil appears on the threshold. In one of the strongest scenes of the film, William's wife laments that she no longer feels God's love and grace, and this torments these people even more than the death of loved ones and fear for those who are close by. Witch: Trailer # 4 (Eng.) 0: 00 / 0:00 Speed1 “The Witch” almost does not contain catchy “boo” effects and develops rather slowly, which can frighten and disappoint those who are used to a more dynamic, clip action. However, the film will definitely catch those who value atmosphere and persuasiveness in horror - here “The Witch” has no equal, it’s like a tour of the terrible tales of Hoffmann and the Grimm brothers. And the most terrible thing is that, having plunged into this world, you stop seeing “just a fairy tale” on the screen - so much is all that is alive, real and convincing. And you begin to understand the Inquisition, which once burned everyone. Well, really, away from sin.
